First Blogger post of 2016.

I'd been racking my brains for some time now trying to put a picture on my Blogger posts shared on Facebook. After doing some research on the interwebs I found an article that explains how to place a thumbnail on a Blogger post when sharing it on Facebook.

This worked for me on Blogger. Maybe it'll work on your Wordpress. Try it but ALWAYS SAVE YOUR TEMPLATE FILE BEFORE YOU FUCK AROUND WITH IT.

From:

http://www.mybloggerlab.com/2014/07/how-to-fix-facebook-post-thumbnail-in-blogger.html

Blogger >> Template >> Edit HTML and just above the
tag paste the following piece of code.":



Put the picture I want as a Facebook share thumbnail on Picasa, which posts the pic publicly on my google+ profile. From my google+ profile where my pic is posted publicly I copy the image address and paste it on the 'http://www.your-blog-logo.jpg' part of the code above.

When you're logged into Facebook this should be the outcome (fingers crossed).

I got Twitterfeed to post a tweet on Facebook through #fb whenever I put out a Blogger post.

Place the code just above the "/head" tag
